The Country Radio Broadcasters (CRB) and Country Radio Seminar (CRS) have announced key updates to the eligibility and selection criteria for their annual New Faces of Country Music Show.
For the 2026 event, Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart has been added as a qualifying factor for artist eligibility. This new criterion joins the existing Mediabase Country Chart, published in Country Aircheck. The inclusion of Billboard’s chart introduces digital sales and streaming data to the mix, providing a broader, more accurate picture of an artist’s performance across multiple platforms.
